Chapter 480 Perhaps sensing that Celeste didn't want to talk to him, after she finished ordering, Trevor brought up something about Jordyn. 1 "Jo will be going to another state next Thursday for an important competition. Will you have tthat day?" "Yeah, Mom, can you cwithto the competition?" Since it was in another state, the round trip would take at least two days.
Right now, there were many urgent matters at YodaVision, Velotra, and Fleming Group waiting for her to handle, so she might not have time. Celeste was considering it and about to speak, but before she could, Jordyn read her expression and already knew what she was going to say. She couldn't even remember how many times Celeste had told her she was busy with work and promised to spend twith her "when she had the time".

Before Celeste could open her mouth, she lowered her head and muttered, "A few days ago, when I went to another state for a training match, all the other kids had their moms and dads with them. Only I was..." At first, when she learned that Trevor couldn't go with her, she didn't think much of it, After all, she often traveled with just the family's maids accompanying her.
But seeing other kids at competitions with their parents by their side, cheering them on like their own personal cheer squad, she suddenly felt lonely. Realizing that, she had immediately called Celeste, but she didn't pick up. Luckily, Trevor did. Hearing this, Celeste's lips parted slightly, but she couldn't say anything. Her silence was as good as refusing, and Jordyn's nose began to sting. She pressed her lips together tightly, turning her face away so she wouldn't have to look at her.
In the past, no matter how busy she was, Celeste would still try her best to make arrangements and accompany Jordyn to competitions. 4 ---- But now... She had told herself to let go of Jordyn. Yet seeing her so upset made Celeste soften almost immediately. + However... She took a deep breath, turned her face aside, and after a pause, looked at Trevor. "You don't have tthat day either?" + "after Grandma's accident, I postponed a lot of work.
Tuesday is the deadline-I have to be in Jorburgh." 2 Celeste frowned, clenching her hands in silence. Seeing the two of them passing responsibility back and forth, Jordyn's eyes reddened instantly. 1 She tossed her spoon onto the table, turned to glare at them, and snapped, "Since you're both busy, you don't have to go.
I'll go by myself!" 7 With that, she spun around and ran toward the door of the private room To be honest, in all the tJordyn had been growing up, Celeste had almost never seen her this angry. She froze for a moment, stunned. 1 ---- When she finally reacted, she instinctively moved to chase after her, but Trevor was faster. Before Jordyn's hand even touched the doorknob, he had crossed the room in a few quick steps and bent down to scoop her into his arms. Jordyn glared at him angrily.
"Letgo." Trevor, however, remained calm. He gently pinched her little cheeks. "When have I ever missed a chance to be with you when I had the time?" 2 Hearing that, Jordyn's sobs faltered slightly. Nestled in his arms, she clutched his shirt without replying, but out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at Celest,e who had stood up at first, but after seeing Trevor pick her up, hadn't moved from her spot.
She knew very clearly that the person who truly made her feel hurt and sad wasn't Trevor, She was only venting her anger at him. The one she was really angry at... was Celeste.
